< Ezekiel 12 >
1 The word of the LORD also came to me, saying,
Et factus est sermo Domini ad me, dicens:
2 "Son of man, you dwell in the midst of the rebellious house, who have eyes to see, and do not see, who have ears to hear, and do not hear; for they are a rebellious house.
Fili hominis, in medio domus exasperantis tu habitas: qui oculos habent ad videndum, et non vident, et aures ad audiendum, et non audiunt: quia domus exasperans est.
3 Therefore, you son of man, prepare your stuff for moving, and move by day in their sight; and you shall move from your place to another place in their sight: it may be they will consider, though they are a rebellious house.
Tu ergo, fili hominis, fac tibi vasa transmigrationis, et transmigrabis per diem coram eis. Transmigrabis autem de loco tuo ad locum alterum in conspectu eorum, si forte aspiciant, quia domus exasperans est:
4 You shall bring forth your baggage by day in their sight, as baggage for exile; and you shall go forth yourself at even in their sight, as when men go forth into exile.
et efferes foras vasa tua quasi vasa transmigrantis per diem in conspectu eorum: tu autem egredieris vespere coram eis, sicut egreditur migrans.
5 Dig through the wall in their sight, and carry your stuff out that way.
Ante oculos eorum perfode tibi parietem, et egredieris per eum.
6 In their sight you shall bear it on your shoulder, and carry it forth in the dark; you shall cover your face, so that you do not see the land: for I have set you for a sign to the house of Israel."
In conspectu eorum in humeris portaberis; in caligine effereris: faciem tuam velabis, et non videbis terram, quia portentum dedi te domui Israël.
7 I did so as I was commanded: I brought forth my stuff by day, as stuff for removing, and in the even I dug through the wall with my hand; I brought it forth in the dark, and bore it on my shoulder in their sight.
Feci ergo sicut præceperat mihi Dominus: vasa mea protuli quasi vasa transmigrantis per diem, et vespere perfodi mihi parietem manu: et in caligine egressus sum, in humeris portatus in conspectu eorum.
8 In the morning came the word of the LORD to me, saying,
Et factus est sermo Domini mane ad me, dicens:
9 "Son of man, has not the house of Israel, the rebellious house, said to you, 'What are you doing?'
Fili hominis, numquid non dixerunt ad te domus Israël, domus exasperans: Quid tu facis?
10 Say to them, 'Thus says the LORD: This burden concerns the prince in Jerusalem, and all the house of Israel among whom they are.'
Dic ad eos: [Hæc dicit Dominus Deus: Super ducem onus istud, qui est in Jerusalem, et super omnem domum Israël, quæ est in medio eorum.]
11 Say, 'I am your sign: like as I have done, so shall it be done to them; they shall go into exile, into captivity.'
Dic: [Ego portentum vestrum: quomodo feci, sic fiet illis: in transmigrationem et in captivitatem ibunt.
12 "The prince who is among them shall bear on his shoulder in the dark, and shall go forth. He shall dig through the wall and carry it through: he shall cover his face, because he shall not see the land with his eyes.
Et dux qui est in medio eorum, in humeris portabitur; in caligine egredietur: parietem perfodient, ut educant eum; facies ejus operietur, ut non videat oculo terram.
13 My net also will I spread on him, and he shall be taken in my snare; and I will bring him to Babylon to the land of the Chaldeans; yet shall he not see it, though he shall die there.
Et extendam rete meum super eum, et capietur in sagena mea: et adducam eum in Babylonem, in terram Chaldæorum, et ipsam non videbit: ibique morietur.
14 I will scatter toward every wind all who are around him to help him, and all his bands; and I will draw out the sword after them.
Et omnes qui circa eum sunt, præsidium ejus, et agmina ejus, dispergam in omnem ventum, et gladium evaginabo post eos.
15 They shall know that I am the LORD, when I shall disperse them among the nations, and scatter them through the countries.
Et scient quia ego Dominus, quando dispersero illos in gentibus, et disseminavero eos in terris.
16 But I will leave a few men of them from the sword, from the famine, and from the pestilence; that they may declare all their abominations among the nations where they come; and they shall know that I am the LORD."
Et relinquam ex eis viros paucos a gladio, et fame, et pestilentia, ut enarrent omnia scelera eorum in gentibus ad quas ingredientur, et scient quia ego Dominus.]
17 Moreover the word of the LORD came to me, saying,
Et factus est sermo Domini ad me, dicens:
18 "Son of man, eat your bread with quaking, and drink your water with trembling and with fearfulness;
[Fili hominis, panem tuum in conturbatione comede, sed et aquam tuam in festinatione et mœrore bibe.
19 and tell the people of the land, 'Thus says the LORD concerning the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and the land of Israel: They shall eat their bread with fearfulness, and drink their water in dismay, that her land may be desolate, and all that is in it, because of the violence of all those who dwell in it.
Et dices ad populum terræ: Hæc dicit Dominus Deus ad eos qui habitant in Jerusalem, in terra Israël: Panem suum in sollicitudine comedent, et aquam suam in desolatione bibent: ut desoletur terra a multitudine sua, propter iniquitatem omnium qui habitant in ea.
20 The cities that are inhabited shall be laid waste, and the land shall be a desolation; and you shall know that I am the LORD.'"
Et civitates quæ nunc habitantur, desolatæ erunt, terraque deserta, et scietis quia ego Dominus.]
21 The word of the LORD came to me, saying,
Et factus est sermo Domini ad me, dicens:
22 "Son of man, what is this proverb that you have in the land of Israel, saying, 'The days are prolonged, and every vision fails?'
[Fili hominis, quod est proverbium istud vobis in terra Israël, dicentium: In longum differentur dies, et peribit omnis visio?
23 Tell them therefore, 'Thus says the LORD: I will make this proverb to cease, and they shall no more use it as a proverb in Israel'; but tell them, 'The days are at hand, and the fulfillment of every vision.
Ideo dic ad eos: Hæc dicit Dominus Deus: Quiescere faciam proverbium istud, neque vulgo dicetur ultra in Israël: et loquere ad eos quod appropinquaverint dies, et sermo omnis visionis.
24 For there shall be no more any false vision nor flattering divination within the house of Israel.
Non enim erit ultra omnis visio cassa, neque divinatio ambigua in medio filiorum Israël:
25 For I am the LORD; I will speak, and the word that I shall speak shall be performed; it shall be no more deferred: for in your days, rebellious house, will I speak the word, and will perform it,' says the LORD."
quia ego Dominus loquar, et quodcumque locutus fuero verbum, fiet, et non prolongabitur amplius: sed in diebus vestris, domus exasperans, loquar verbum, et faciam illud, dicit Dominus Deus.]
26 Again the word of the LORD came to me, saying,
Et factus est sermo Domini ad me, dicens:
27 "Son of man, look, they of the house of Israel say, 'The vision that he sees is for many day to come, and he prophesies of times that are far off.'
[Fili hominis, ecce domus Israël dicentium: Visio quam hic videt, in dies multos et in tempora longa iste prophetat.
28 Therefore tell them, 'Thus says the LORD: None of my words shall be deferred any more, but the word which I shall speak shall be performed, says the LORD.'"
Propterea dic ad eos: Hæc dicit Dominus Deus: Non prolongabitur ultra omnis sermo meus: verbum quod locutus fuero, complebitur, dicit Dominus Deus.]
